Our Health Our Money
Health related expenditures have been identified as one of the major causes of rural impoverishment in many developing countries including India. The declining financial resources allocated by the state has resulted in forcing people to pay from their pocket for health care even as the unofficial and informal payments continue in whatever public health services that are still delivered. The inadequacy shown by the community in asking any question on the functioning of the health system and more so regarding the utilization of the financial resources in health such as untied funds to the PHC, sub-centre and to each of the Village Health Nutrition and Sanitation Committees (VHNSC) or the disbursement of Maternal Protection Scheme (Janani Suraksha Yojana -JSY) etc., has been a critical area which needed intervention. The community monitoring and planning advocated by civil society and also promoted by the government under the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) has yielded positive results. However, it has been an uphill task to include the issues of health budget and flow of money into the processes of monitoring which is a challenging task. This documentary captures such an effort done in 12 villages of Bolangir district, Orissa State, India where community is taught as to the money that is allocated to various schemes at the community level to deliver health entitlements. Such demand for accountability is done while the community is actively engaging with the public health system within the larger processes of community mobilisation and monitoring to demand accountability from the health system. Our Health Our Money, a film produced by CHSJ showcases the work done in Odisha around decentralised monitoring of health expenditure. The film is 25 minutes, with English subtitles.
